Creator's Key Takeaways

we really learned a lot of things here on our first alaska cruise we really learned a lot of things about royal caribbean and again in alaska excursions what to do

we were so disappointed if you've been following us on a high seas friends uh travel facebook or instagram high seas paul i see cindy you always know that you know when we're on a balcony we're you know out there with our robes and our coffee but we found out royal doesn't offer robes

book your excursions early we weren't even sure a hundred percent towards the end if we were going to go because our flight with alaska they were having strikes we didn't know if we were going to have problems
